Embodiment Construction

[0036] The problems of connecting stainless steel pipe sections and ferritic steel pipe sections in pipes preferably used in combined cycle power plants are:

[0037] Optimization of CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) mismatch

[0038] · Achievement of operating pressure and temperature ratings

[0039] · Transient conditions with sharp ups and downs during device start-up

[0040] · Consideration of creep, fatigue and their interaction

[0041] · Lifespan and permissible cycle times

[0042] ·Lifetime free maintenance - not disturbed by the operating system

[0043] · No mixed welds on site

[0044] ·External force and moment

[0045] · Facilitate on-site replacement of existing layout

[0046] ·ASME and PED certified.

[0047] According to the invention, the dissimilar metal joining joint, which takes into account the different mechanical properties of the materials involved, is used in itself to provide a critical material transition between joining surfaces with...

Abstract

A dissimilar pipe joint arrangement (28) is described comprising a first pipe section (30) and a second pipe section (31), and a dissimilar pipe joint between the first pipe section and the second pipe section , the first and second continuous pipe sections (30, 31) are respectively made of first and second metallic materials (M5, M6) having different material characteristics and properties. Improved lifetime and extended applicability are achieved, wherein said dissimilar pipe joint (28) is a coupling joint (F1, F2), said first pipe section made of said first metallic material (M5) (30) At one end, there is a first coupling piece (F1) made of said first metal material (M5), said second pipe area made of said second metal material (M6) The segment (31) is provided at one end with a second coupling (F2) made of said second metallic material (M6), and the first coupling (F1) and the second coupling (F2) are bolted Together, whereby the first seal is established by direct metallic contact between the front faces of the first coupling ( F1 ) and the second coupling ( F2 ).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technology of pipes comprising sections of different materials. It involves dissimilar piping joints. Background technique [0002] The use of different metals / alloys which differ in their metallurgical properties and which in this context are referred to as "dissimilar metals" in the joint, which expose For high temperature, high pressure loads, high cycling, and high transients with external forces and moments. [0003] Existing codes and standards / literatures in the industry have less information on the properties and safety of such joints and are often unsafe. [0004] figure 1 A basic scheme of a combined cycle power plant (CCPP) 10 is shown. figure 1 The combined cycle power plant 10 includes a gas turbine 11 connected to a water / steam cycle 12 via a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) 19 . [0005] The gas turbine 11 includes a compressor 14 which draws air through an air inlet 13 and delivers the compr...
